Bacon Bourbon Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the honey and bourbon in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• Lay the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Brush with some of the honey-bourbon syrup. Continue roasting until deeply caramelized and crispy, another 10 to 15 minutes--the bacon will really crisp as it cools. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix ground beef, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, steak seasoning, and garlic salt in a bowl; divide and shape into 2 patties.
• Cook on the preheated grill for about 5 minutes; turn, top each burger with bacon and Cheddar cheese, and continue cooking until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 5 minutes more for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve on split buns topped with tomato and lettuce.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in small skillet over med heat, stirring occasionally, until fat is rendered and bacon is crisp, about 6 minutes.
• Transfer bacon to aper towels to drain grease, reserve 1tsp of the bacon drippings from pan.
• Put reserved bacon and drippings in small bowl, along with butter, bourbon, maple wyrup, and sugar.
• Season with salt.
• Using a fork, vigorously whisk until well combined.
• Transfer butter mixture to a sheet of parchment paper, wax paper, or plastic wrap, placing on edge closest to you.
• Fold paper over and roll into a cylinder, twisting the ends; wrap airtight in foil.
• Chill until solid. Butter will keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or frozen up to 3 months.
